:08:01
Get the boss over there.
:08:04
- Come on.
- Here's the boss, sergeant.

:08:06
What's the idea?
We've been raided already this week.

:08:09
They didn't tell me about it.
Take him away.

:08:23
- Good afternoon.
- Good afternoon, Soames.

:08:25
- Hello, Soames.
- Georgie, would you like a cocktail?

:08:28
I certainly would.
:08:29
Soames, would you bring
cocktails in the drawing room?

:08:32
Yes, madam.
:08:34
- Soames, have there been any calls?
- No, madam. But Mr. Skeffington is here.

:08:38
He's in the garden with Miss Fanny.
:08:40
Thank you.
:08:42
- Does Fanny know what's going on?
- It's impossible to keep anything from her.

:08:47
You see, she's inherited all of Job's brains
and none of my looks.

:08:50
As a matter of fact, Job says
she looks like his grandmother.

:08:53
Fanny, I'm gonna make
one more last plea.

:08:56
Can't you find it possible to forgive Job?
:08:58
Five secretaries in a row?
I'm not that forgiving.

:09:01
The second secretary must have
forgiven him for the first.

:09:04
The third for the second, and so on.
:09:06
Can't you be as forgiving as a secretary?
:09:08
As a matter of fact,
I'm very grateful to Job...

:09:10
...for making it so easy for me
to divorce him.

:09:13
I must admit, at first I was very angry.
:09:16
And then suddenly, I realized
that the five secretaries...

:09:19
...were five gates to freedom.
:09:21
And now you can live
with your conscience.

:09:24
Well, yes.
:09:26
I hope the two of you will be very happy.
:09:33
George...
:09:35
...is the custody of the child
always given to the mother?

:09:38
That's the usual court procedure.
:09:40
Why? Don't you wanna keep
young Fanny?

:09:43
Of course. It's just that, well...
:09:46
Poor little Fanny. I can't help but feel
she'd so much rather be with Job.

:09:50
She loves him so.
:09:52
Put them here, Soames.
:09:54
Yes, madam.
:09:59
For you, George.
